Touch Pro 2 Cleanup

[bndfishing]

until I recently did a hard reset I had the task manager and "x" to close opera. I have always been on 6.5 and run the cleanup first. Is there a way to get the task manager and the opera close back?

6.5 didn't have the task manager. I have the task manager cab if you want it. You van also find the cab elsewhere I'm this site.

So I finally figured out what the problem was that I had posted here http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...89&postcount=4. After some work I found out that it was the Sprint WM 6.5 Cleanup cab that was causing this unfortunate situation. Are there any suggestions on what to do here because I really enjoy the use of this cab as it is very handy.

Edit: Just tried the sprint tweaks cab only and the same issue occured. Although after uninstalling the tweaks cab, I had functionality back for the fn+sym window and not the underscore that I get after installation.

I just installed the " sprint_tp2_tweaks_wm65.cab " and I want to turn off the setting that reads my messages and email to me. How can I do this?

That is controlled by Voice Command. To turn it Off or change what it reads go to your Settings Tab and click Menu -> All Settings, Personal -> Voice Command.

Unfortunately it doesn't have separate settings for SMS or Email, only Messaging. I find it funny when it reads texts to me but I cant stand it with emails so i had to turn it off.

Hope that helps

i installed the sprint tp2 clean up wm65.cab. it works way better however i cant get the Internet Connection Sharing to work. and no im not running the mightyrom at this time...just the stock 6.5

[marctronixx]

i still have my pro2 and its stock with only this cab installed and ICS works just fine. i

does your device still list the ICS as an option when you plug it up to the computer?

[eXuRo]

ok. i will make new thread..

[marctronixx]

this is not the correct thread for this. open up a new one or search the rom devs and ask them...

[cbruinenberg]

Hello all,
I'm a blind user. I really like the package but is there a way to remove the shutdown screen and make it the defult shutdown? Everything else about the package is great but its annoying I cant shut down my phone because I cant access the icdon when shutting the device off.
Sorry if that didn't make any sense.
Thanks,

With all the requests to "clean house" on the stock ROMs, and also with a recognition that some people either can't or aren't ready to use a custom ROM (translation: business users and new users), I've put together an easily installed package that helps us trim the fat from the OEM customizations.

Installing this will make several modifications to your Touch Pro2 configuration to make it perform faster, have relatively stable battery life, and still provide a functional experience.

With that in mind, here are the instructions and guidelines for these packages. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY... I AM WILLING TO HELP WHEN THERE IS A PROBLEM, BUT IF YOU DON'T READ THE INFORMATION, I WON'T BE INCLINED TO REPEAT MYSELF. Please also pay close attention to Posts #2, 3, and 4 for more information!

NOTE #1: I will fix any issues with these packages, but I won't necessarily be adding any new features. This is intended to provide as many of the "essentials" as possible without a lot of hassle. I also have limited time to work on these things, and well to be honest... if you want to go beyond the essentials, you should really be looking at Custom ROM development.

NOTE #2: Advanced users are more than welcome to edit the _setup.xml file within the cab files and continue customizing it as they see fit.

As I said before, I really consider this to be a Quick Essentials tool for those who aren't willing or aren't ready for ROM cooking.

NOTE #3: There are currently 6 versions, and it's important to pick the version that matches the carrier you use. Using the wrong carrier can cause many instability and functionality issues, using the wrong OS package will cause your phone to lock up, so pay attention to what you're doing.

Here is the full list of optimizations in the Tweaks Only edition (Updated 03/21/2010, BoldItalics is New):

    1. * These free up about 20% of system memory
59. Set the default order of HTC Manila tabs (Sprint Only)

    1. This will reset the first 4 items on each re-install. I apologize, but it's the only way I can properly unlock all 4 properly.
    2. Changing the first position (Settings) may not work without also removing the "Commands" value from HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher\0
61. Enable all available Camera modes
62. Enable G-Sensor Enhancements (See Post #4 for details)
63. Enable Task Manager "Always Close with X" mode

Additionally, the Sprint_TP2_Cleanup package will "revamp" the Start Menu by cleaning things up and resorting the list alphabetically. It also deletes a bunch of the HTC garbage files that clutter up the file system. No programs are actually removed, so if you like the Sprint stuff, you can re-enable the Sense UI tabs for those programs. Absolutely, positively ONLY attempt to install the Cleanup edition after a hard reset and absolutely, positively do NOT install other applications before installing the Cleanup. If you're installing a newer release and don't want to hard reset, download both the cleanup (for future hard resets) AND the tweaks for the immediate updates.

----------------
How to Install:
----------------

1. Save the file somewhere convenient, like your Desktop or My Documents. NOTE: Only download the file appropriate for your carrier!
2. Connect your phone to your computer using your USB cable.
3. Browse to the phone through "My Computer".
4. Copy the file (drag and drop usually works best) to the phone. That said, I strongly recommend putting it on your storage card.
5. Disconnect the phone from the computer.
6. On the phone, go to Start > Programs > File Explorer.
7. Find the file on your storage card (or My Documents or wherever you put it).
8. Tap on the file to open the zip file... then tap on the cab inside... when prompted, tap Install. It will require you to do a soft reset when it finishes. NOTE: Install to Device, not Storage Card.


------------------
Troubleshooting:
------------------

If it doesn't install, read the instructions more thoroughly and try again. If the install doesn't work for some reason and reports that it cannot be installed, then chances are I mangled something in the _setup.xml file (I am prone to typos now and again) OR you have something on your phone already that the cab doesn't like. Keep in mind, I've only tested this on my phone which was just hard reset in order to make sure the installers worked.

If it doesn't work for you, let me know which file you used and I'll make sure the installer isn't broken. Beyond that, you're on your own to figure out if any programs you've installed are unhappy with the modifications.

• There is a known issue if you already have an email account setup... messages will appear blank. Remove the account, re-add it, and resync and all will be well.

• There are conflicts between Schap's Advanced Config and CDMA-based devices. These conflicts can cause softkeys to break and other issues such as not being able to answer calls. I strongly discourage the use of the application under any circumstance, but at the very least, do NOT use it in conjunction with this process.
  
  
• When enabling Classic Word Correction, Opera users may experience an issue in which the soft keyboard gets stuck in web or numeric mode. To avoid/correct this, click in the "Search" section below the address bar (instead of the address bar) before exiting Opera.

Why THIS configuration? Why THESE settings?
------------------------------------------------

I chose this configuration because for the past two years, I've observed my own usage habits as well as the habits of about 2 dozen people that I work with as well as a significant number of users here who frequently post looking for things of this nature. My goal is to provide an experience that is functional but lightweight and efficient. The settings are set so that the Windows Mobile experience is as fast, power conservative, and finger friendly as possible.

I will NEVER include hacks for the Dialer or Manila, such as hide curtains, dialer skins, etc. Don't even ask!

Pay close attention to the filenames below... use the WM65 files only for STOCK ROMS with Windows Mobile 6.5! If you use a 6.1 package on 6.5, you will crash it and require a hard reset.
